Surrender and Control—The Power of Letting Go

 

 To lead, you must follow.

Elaboration: The path to leadership is often thought of as one of dominance, but the Mad Mage discovered that true leadership comes from the ability to follow. To lead others, you must first follow the wisdom of life itself, learning to serve those you lead, to listen more than you speak. In following, you become a leader who is aligned with the flow of the universe, rather than one who tries to force their will upon it.

 Reflection:

Think about how you lead in your life—whether in your career, relationships, or personal growth. How might you shift from trying to direct others or situations to following the natural flow and wisdom of life? What would it mean to lead through service rather than control?
